Thanks JustIce,
One problem I am having is that I am unable to specify a partition called "/export".
Whenever I go through format, I am only allowed a few specified tags (/usr, swap etc. I think.)
When I do a "mkdir /export", this is added to the root partition. Any idea how I can create my "/export" partition?
Thanks again,
Stephen.
